I think the point of fight club (been so long since I saw it and I never even saw the whole thing) was that the whole concept of the fight club and trying to act like all macho or whatever is absurd and you should just chill and be yourself, reject that kind of labelling. Even though the soap guy was telling people to rebel and question things and stop being so materialist he ended up being as full of shit too and you should question everything including him. The author of fight club even said it in an interview pretty sure (don't quote me, I THINK he did).

I don't get the veneration misc and other forums have for these movies. Probably because of the obsession with being manly/alpha and the ostracism from society of the average miscer, they look to the soap dude in fight club as some alpha they should follow. But the movie kind of mocked that as it went on. So the movie was, in essence, mocking miscers.

honestly I don't fucking remember anything from that movie so maybe I'm wrong?
